The Beta's Salvation THIRTY ONE
Zeke POVI sat beside the bathtub; my fists clenched so tightly that my knuckles had turned white. My jaw ached from grinding my teeth, but the rage boiling inside me was impossible to contain. The only thing keeping me from storming straight to Neo's office and ripping his throat out was her.Sky.Her body—once untouchable, once something I thought could never be broken—was wrecked.Bruises covered her pale skin, dark purple splotches spreading across her arms, ribs, and thighs. The sight of them made my stomach churn. She should never look like this. A few cuts still bled into the bathwater, staining the once-clear surface with streaks of red.I swallowed hard."I should have stopped him." The words left me in a whisper, barely audible, but they carried the weight of my failure."Killing him now would feel good, but it would leave her unprotected." A low, lethal growl rumbled from Payne."Then what? We'd be dead, and she'd be alone." That was the only reason I hadn't torn Neo apart.

Sky POVThe heat of the bath danced across my skin; it should have relaxed me, but it didn't. Instead, I held my breath. Zeke's fingers ghosted over my back, the warm sponge trailing along my skin with an unbearable slowness that sent shivers rippling through my body. His touch was maddening—firm yet careful, reverent but teasing, igniting something dangerous under my skin.I clenched my jaw, willing myself not to make a sound.Not to moan.Not to give him the satisfaction.Because if I did, if I let even the smallest sound slip past my lips, I knew he'd never let me forget it.The bathwater lapped gently around me, the soft sound mingling with my ragged breathing. I swallowed hard, my chest rising and falling in a slow, uneven rhythm as Zeke dragged the sponge over my shoulder, the heat of his palm pressing against my skin as he flicked my hair over one side, exposing my neck.I shuddered.His fingers lingered, his thumb brushing over the sensitive skin just below my ear, his breath

Zeke's POV"You're a fool," Payne growled. "You should have taken her when she begged for it.""This isn't the time." I clenched my jaw, forcing myself to focus anywhere but on the woman stretched out in the bath, steam curling around her damp skin like a fucking invitation."There will never be a time if you keep waiting." Payne snarled, pacing in my mind like a caged beast. "She's ours. She wants us. Take her.""And what then?" I muttered under my breath. "Neo will make her life hell.""Her life is already hell. And you denying her doesn't make it any better." I exhaled sharply, running a hand through my hair as Sky shifted, her movements drawing my attention like a goddamn magnet."Zeke." She purred, lifting her legs over the edge of the bath, her wince subtle but there. My gaze locked onto the dark bruises along her thighs, my breath catching for a second before my wolf's fury overtook me.A growl tore from my chest before I could stop it. Neo had done this. Neo had let this happe

SKY POV "I said I don't want to talk about it, Neo!" I sighed, pulling my legs up under me as I watched the world whizz by through the passenger side window. "I didn't wanna drive three hours to get your ass out of trouble again, but shit here I am, sis! So how about you drop the attitude and start telling me what the fuck is going on?" Neo scoffed, his eyes briefly leaving the road to check my reaction. "Damn, big brother, how long has dad been dead, three months? And already you are sounding... just. like. him." I muttered, squeezing my legs tighter to me and rubbing my sore wrists. "Sky, look..." "No, you look, Neo, my boyfriend just had me arrested on some bullshit charges that meant I spent hours in that shit hole, being strip searched and questioned, only for the bastard to drop the charges and demand I was released. So how about you let me sulk a little while longer." I snapped moodily."We are wolves, Sky; we see each other naked all the time." His only reply and it inf

SKY POVLuckily, the remainder of the three-hour car ride had been painless. Neo had remained silent, no doubt sulking over the fact I wasn't jumping for joy at being dragged back to the pack, and I had imagined hundreds of ways I could kill my big brother. Things had always been like this between us. I was the annoying little sister he never wanted and certainly didn't ask for; he was my big brother. Who, until I left, I had idolised and wanted to spend every minute with. My father and I were close growing up, and I did not doubt that if I had gone to him and told him about Z being my mate and Neo's offer, he would have kicked Neo's ass and demanded we be allowed to find our way. But honestly, the second Z paused even for a second to contemplate my brother's offer... I was done. I knew my worth! At least I did back then!"I truly do just want what is best for you Sky!" Neo relented as we pulled up to the packhouse. Scoffing, I turned to look at him through strained eyes and nodded

ZEKE POVI stood on the porch watching Sky and Neo walk towards the packhouse. She was just as sexy and spirited as I remembered, although her beautiful brown hair was now a stunning shade of soft pink. Seeing her again was like a punch to the gut. My wolf, Payne, was instantly in awe of her, demanding I claim her and forget the past. But I knew Sky well enough to know she wasn't the sort of girl to take demands well. I felt my lips twitch at the corners as they walked; my eyes couldn't help but follow the sway of her hips and the curve of her ass. She was going to be the firecracker the packhouse needed, that was for sure."Mine!" Payne growled low. "I am not so sure about that, bud." I sighed, my eyes still glued to her ass."Mine." Payne, a wolf with a limited vocabulary, insisted again with a growl; this time, however, I felt the growl rip from my throat, the sound catching the attention of Sky and Neo, who turned to face me, neither looking impressed."Down, boy." Sky taunted,

SKY POVI took the stairs slowly; thanks to the wine, my legs were a little more shaky than I would have liked. 'Lightweight', I teased myself as I reached the top floor and had to use a wall to steady myself feeling weak from the lack of food, sleep and long ass drive. Approaching my old room, I took a deep breath and paused before entering."I am not sure what to expect anymore," I admitted to Evie, not expecting an answer; after all, I had been horrid of late. I didn't want to come home, but now I am..." I let the sentence drift off because I wasn't sure I wanted to admit that I found myself caught up in a mix of emotions. I was enjoying the nostalgia, but with it came the pain of betrayal and doubt."Maybe Neo has turned my room into a gym. Or a sex dungeon." I mused with a scoff."Lord knows he needs some kind of relief," Evie added with a grunt herself."Did you just crack a joke?" I asked my usually shy wolf, amusement lacing my question."No. I was being serious." She laughed,

SKY POVI lay down in my bed, the window open, feeling the cool breeze on my olive skin. The scent of last night's rain that still clung to the wood wafted through the window, bringing back memories of him. I moved my legs over the soft blanket beneath me, letting my mind drift to the last time Z and I were alone together when he claimed to love me deeply. Our playlist played softly in the background, each song a reminder of our youthful growing love.I closed my eyes, twirling my long pink hair with one hand, and drifted into my thoughts. I pictured him in bed with me, his one green and one blue eye gazing into my blue hues as we both smiled. Our love was so new and fresh, yet it felt ancient, as if we were lovers in a past life.I could almost feel his hand moving along my thigh. I thought back to the last words he spoke to me before I left, "I will love you to the day that I die." I smiled as my own hand moved along my bare thigh, feeling the soft skin as his hand would have. I bit

The Beta's Salvation THIRTY
Sky's POVEvery step Zeke took sent a fresh wave of pain tearing through my body, but I didn't tell him to stop.I should have.I should have fought him, should have demanded he put me down and let me suffer through this on my own. But I didn't. Because as much as my body ached, as much as my pride had been shattered into pieces out on that training field, being in his arms soothed something inside me that I didn't want to admit needed soothing.His scent surrounded me—woodsmoke and cedar, fresh rain and something uniquely Zeke. I hated how much comfort it brought me.Pack members watched as we passed through the halls, their gazes trailing over me, over the bruises forming on my skin, the blood drying at the corner of my lips. They said nothing.No one moved to help.No one so much as asked if I was okay.This was what Neo had built—a pack too afraid to intervene, too conditioned to question their Alpha's cruelty."Everyone's looking." I uttered before I swallowed the lump in my thro
The Beta's Salvation TWENTY NINE
Neo's POVThe moment I stepped onto the training field, everything stopped.The air shifted, thickening with unease. Warriors who had been mid-spar turned rigid, their movements faltering. The stench of panic, anxiety, and, more importantly, fear filled the space, seeping into the dirt like the scent of a fresh kill.Good.They knew better than to relax in my presence.And Zeke?He had the audacity to try and rule me today—to pull me aside, to question my authority.He would learn.I let my gaze drift past him, locking onto Sky. She was panting, her body slick with sweat and dirt, her fists clenched as she glared at me like she wanted to rip my throat out. A calculating smirk curled at my lips."You're looking weak, sister," I taunted, watching as her expression twisted in fury. She barely had time to snarl before Kade struck. A swift, brutal blow to her ribs sent her sprawling onto the dirt."Let's fix that." I laughed, slow and taunting.I let them fight, determined to break her bit
The Beta's Salvation TWENTY EIGHT
Zeke's POVEvery muscle in my body was wound tight, my wolf pacing just beneath my skin as I watched Sky stand across from Kade, her fists clenched, her breathing uneven.She shouldn't be here.She knew it. I knew it.And Neo?He was going to fucking love making an example of her.Kade shifted on his feet, rolling his shoulders like he was waiting for permission to strike. The cocky smirk tugging at his lips sent irritation crawling up my spine. Of course, he was enjoying this.Kade was a bully. He always had been.He was the type of fighter who liked to push others past their limits just to watch them break. He enjoyed winding men up, digging at their weaknesses until they snapped. He made warriors stronger, sure—but not without casualties.I had hoped, just for a second, that he'd be a little more respectful of Sky.She was Neo's sister, after all.But now? Watching the way he sized her up, the way his hands flexed like he was eager to tear into her? I wasn't sure who I was more wor
The Beta's Salvation TWENTY SEVEN
Sky's POVThe warmth of the early morning sun kissed my bare back, seeping into my muscles and easing the stiffness that had settled overnight. My body felt heavy, my mind still tangled in sleep, but the comfort was fleeting. I cracked one eye open, blinking against the golden light that flooded my room.And then I saw it.The tray. The fucking tray.I groaned, rolling onto my stomach, my forehead pressing into the pillow as frustration curled in my chest.I ate it.All of it.I had barely eaten at dinner, just stolen bites here and there, but my wolf had been starving. Tired, restless, pissed off. And when I had come back from my run, the smell of food had been too much to ignore.I hated myself for it.Hated that Zeke knew.Hated that he had been right—that I did need it."It's not a weakness to accept food from your mate, you know." Evie stirred in my head, stretching lazily."He's not my mate." I scowled, but deep down, something inside me twisted.Because even as I denied it, eve

Sky's POVI slipped into my room, closing the door softly behind me, my body still humming from the run, from Lucy's warning, from the feeling of being watched.But the moment I stepped inside, my chest tightened.I smelled him.Zeke.The scent was subtle but unmistakable—earthy, warm, laced with the slightest hint of something that always made my stomach twist in ways I hated.Evie stirred immediately, her presence sharp and alert. He was here.I know. I scanned the room, my pulse picking up despite myself. There was no sign of him, no lingering warmth of his presence, but my wolf knew. He left something.And then I saw it. On the nightstand. A tray of food, still warm—eggs, toast, bacon, even coffee. My throat tightened. “How did I miss him, I had just been in the kitchen?” I asked Evie, who said nothing, to invested in purring like a damn cat. Next to it, a single note.One word."Soon."My breath hitched. A promise. But a promise for what?My fingers curled around the small piece

Neo POVI sat behind my desk, my fingers steepled, my mind burning. The glass of whiskey in front of me sat untouched, the amber liquid swirling with each impatient tap of my fingers against the polished wood.Sky.Zeke.Their names alone left a bitter taste in my mouth, souring the air around me. I should have seen it coming. I should have known the moment I let that little bitch step foot back in my packhouse; she had started infecting it with her defiance.The way the pack looked at her tonight. The way they listened when she spoke. It was like she hadn't been gone for years. Like she belonged. Like they still saw her as Alpha blood. I clenched my jaw, my fingers curling into fists.That was my place.And Zeke?I had given him everything. Pulled him up from nothing. He was a fucking nobody before I made him my Beta. And yet—there he was. Hovering around Sky like a guard dog. His lips on her. His hands gripping her.My fingers twitched at the memory of Maverick's report, his descrip
